By Associated Press. ■ ,
New York, June 27.—Walter Camp of
Yale athletic fame, who has just re-,
turned from abroad, saw while in Eng-
land a game of baseball between the
Rhodes scholars at Oxford and a team
picked from Association football playe're
of England. The game was the most
amusing he ever saw. It began at 2,p. tn.
and at 7 o’clock three innings had been
played and the score was 52 to 38 in favor
of the Rhodes men. The higher the score
rose the greater the enthusiasm of the
spectators. ■
“I left at the end of the third inning,”
Mr. Camp said. “They may be playing
yet.” -

EVERY MAN HIS OWN DOCTOR.
The average man cannot afford to em-
ploy a physician for every slight ailment
or injury that may occur in his family,
nor can he afford to neglect them, as so
slight an injury as the scratch of a pin
has been known to. cause the loss of a
limb. Hence every man must from neces-
sity be his own doctor for this class of
ailments. Success often depends upon
prompt treatment, which can only be had
when suitable medicines are kept at hand.

market for many years and enjoy a
good reputation. They sell for 25- cents a

New York, June 27.—The days of Sept. 18
to 26, 1909, will be set apart for the cele-
bration of the 300th anniversary of the
discovery of the Hudson river by Henry
Hudson and of the 100th anniversary of
the first practical application of steam
navigation by Robert Fulton, which was
made on the Hudson. This decision was
reached by the Hudson-Fulton celebration
commission at a meeting yesterday, in
accordance with a report from the com-
mittee on scope and plan,
A tentative program for the celebration
was presented. It provides that Saturday
and Sunday, the first two days of the
celebration, be given up to religious serv-
ices in the churches.
Monday will be observed as reception
day. After the American and foreign
naval vessels have assembled in the riv-
er the ‘‘Half Moon” wall enter the Hud-
son and be formally received and the
“Clermont” will start from her ,original
slip as she did a hundred years ago.
Tuesday will be historical day, when
exercises will be ^ield in all the univer-
sities and institutions of learning through-
out: the state.
Wednesday will be given over to an im-
mense land parade.
Thursday is to be devoted to the dedi-
cation of various memorials.
Friday is to be Hudson river day. Two
naval parades will start from New York
aqd Albany, meeting at Newburg, where
exercises will be held.
Saturday being illumination day, will
be given over to children’s festivals in
the afternoon. In the evening almost the
entire river will be illuminated.
GALVESTON 2-4, WACO 1-2.
Waco, Tex., June 26.—Although the
local players outbatted Galveston in both
games, they were defeated each time.
Sommers held the Sandcrabs down very
well in the matter of actual hits, but in
both games he gave the game away him-
self by bases on balls and errors by him-
self and others at critical times, letting
Galveston score all of their' runs. The
Navigator^ hit Torrey freely in. both
games, but/were- unlucky in the pinches,
not being able to get the necessary hits,
or being put out on double plays, the
visitors having not less than four double
plays in the first game and two in the
last.

Special to The Tribune.
New Orleans, La., June 27.—The dis-
covery was made last night that the kid-
napers and murderers of the Lamana boy
butchered the child and cut up his body
before they hid it in the swamps of St.
Charles parish. A searching party brought
the news that fragments of the body had
been found in thfe swamp, near where
the horrible 1 butchery occurred.
The sheriff of St. Charles parish, who
headed the searching party, took change
pf the grewsome telics of the tragedy and
hurried them over to the coroner, .who
will in turn deliver them to the Lamana
family. Wild animals had been feasting
off the human Tlesh before the bones were
Alexander; tfound‘
The remains upon which the inquest, was
held were incomplete, and the strangest
part of the thing is that large bones were
the ones missing. Not only was the head
several from the body and thd skull
cracked, but the lower limbs were sep-
arated from the trunk, and one of the
Jbrms was missing. The collarbone was
, gone, the vertbrae in the neck were miss-
ing, most of the ribs had disappeared,
and the large bones of the pelvis were
missing.
Another singular point is that there is
apparent but a small quantity of blood
on the "boy’s clothes. The blow on the
head ■ should have resulted, in the satur-
ation of his shirt. Coroner O’Hara has
sent the clothes to the city chemist to be
analyzed to. determine the amount of blood
on them.
District YAtttorney I^arerro, Attorney
Lusenberg and Chairman Patorno of the
Italian (jommittee today continued the
work of securing voluntary confession
from the men and women accused of the
murder and kidnaping of Walter Lamana,
and the fact that leaked out that Campig-
ciano, in whose house the boy was killed,
has gradually admitted his share in the
tragedy. Heretofore, even with a rope
around his neck, he maintained that In-
carcarterra killed the boy, but today, his
wife acknowledged that her husband got
the blanket and wrapped the body in it,
and he also admitted it.
That Campigciano killed the Lamana
boy with a hatchet seems certain, but the
villainous prisoner withstands all at-
tempts to get him to confess to this part
of the tragedy.
His story about the boy being strangled
in Incarcarterra is silly. If he. had de-
clared that Angleo Incarcarterra had
dealt the child the fatal blow some cred-
ence could be given his claim that he did
not see the actual murder and was only
told of the death of the Lamana boy.
But in his effort to shield himself Cam-
pigciano insists that the child was stran-
gled, and that when he saw Angelo and
the tall man he/^ knows as Joe, who is
probably Luchesi, bearing the body of the
little fellow through his field, he saw no
blood either dripping from or on the
blanket in which he says the corpse was
wrapped. While the murderers were cruel
in their crime, they were not without re-
gard for their physical exertion.
• If the boy had been choked there would
have been no necessity to split open his
skull with a hatchet. If the hatchet had
been used at the outset the blow would
have killed instantly, and there would
have been no necessity of strangling the
boy. The skull bears the big split from
the hatchet. The opening extends from
the crown in the very cented of the skull
down the frontal bone and ends almost a
at a center point about a quarter of an
inch above the arch of the eyebrows.
This blow was delivered by a powerful
and the hatchet or ax was sharp.
The one who used the weapon faced the
child, and it is most likely that the boy
was on his feet looking at the man who
killed him.
